Let’s get basic. I want to discuss the most essential, timeless piece to have in your business casual work wardrobe: the perfect pencil skirt. I could probably write poems about this fashion staple. A) Because I’m a dork B) Because I love feeling feminine when headed to a business meeting that I know will inevitably be dominated by men and C) Can I say – they just make me feel good? Ok, I will! Pencil skirts make me feel the way Peggy Olson looked in her infamous Mad Men stroll through the office. (while I don’t and never will smoke, watching her swag in that scene ALMOST made me want to start). My favorite pencil skirts have been purchased at White House Black Market (of course), Nordstrom and Target. Lucky for me, none of my go-to brands break the bank. Lucky for you, I share!
